common ground versuri

common ground lyrics by Carter Rubin

Verse 1
You call me so what you going on for
Don’t ask questions you know you’re not ready for
I won’t be around the bush anymore
Flowers died right aside your door
I left them there in the middle of a downpour
There’s no beat in the heart of us anymore

Pre-Chorus
Open hand
I’ll show you all my
Cards are on the table
So go on call my bluff

Chorus
We either say too much or we say nothing at all
We’re always hung up on the hang up of a late night call
You know we got the chase part down in this run around
We’re a couple of bookends but we’re never the book
Maybe this enemies to lovers trope just won’t work
I guess we got nothing in common and we know that now
And that’s our common ground
That’s our common ground

Verse 2
I’m doing you a favor turning my back
You’re gonna thank me later when the time’s past, yeah
I promise the end just defines the means
We could bury the hatchet or we could slowly die
We could drag this out or we could cut the tie
So what a web we weaved back when we still believed

Chorus
We either say too much or we say nothing at all
We’re always hung up on the hang up of a late night call
You know we got the chase part down in this run around
We’re a couple of bookends but we’re never the book
Maybe this enemies to lovers trope just won’t work
I guess we got nothing in common and we know that now
And that’s our common ground
That’s our common

Bridge
Open hand
I’ll show you all my
Cards are on the table
But you still call my bluff
I died when you first said my name
Told my mom you were an angel
Guess I’m just in a neighbor of us
Cause I was ready to jump
And I was ready to fall goddamn
I coulda sworn you’d be there through it all
We were spinning so fast we couldn’t see we were circling
The train we were going down, only ever going down
Yeah, the fire was so thick, but I always saw you through it
If you got enough to love left, now’s the time to prove it
You went some nights alone, now I don’t know how you do it
I don’t know how you do it, no

Chorus
We either say too much or we say nothing at all
We’re always hung up on the hang up of a late night call
You know we got the chase part down in this run around
We’re a couple of bookends but we’re never the book
Maybe this enemies to lovers trope just won’t work
I guess we got nothing in common and we know that now
And that’s our common ground
That’s our common ground

Outro
You call me so what you going on for
There’s no beat in the heart of us anymore
